Certain kinds of collisions have the potential to be quite serious. A rollover crash can be very terrifying. Passengers may be flung from the car and sustain severe injuries, particularly if they are not buckled up when the crash occurs. Rollovers make up fewer than 3 percent of reported crashes, yet they account for about 33 percent of all road fatalities that are reported each year, according to the latest crash statistics. In most of these deaths, passengers are not wearing seat belts.
